Inductive component

Abstract

least one contact element is covered at least in part by a first wall section of the cover cap. The coil body comprises a depression which is formed below the magnetic core and in which a second wall section of the cover cap extending perpendicularly to the side surface of the magnetic core extends between the coil body and the magnetic core received in the coil body. The cover cap comprises a third wall section which is disposed opposite the second wall section and covers at least in part a side surface of the magnetic core and covers the winding at least in part.
